Rezensionen

"The book helpfully emphasises that effective writing today isn't just about clarity and conciseness, essential as these are. Today's digital-savvy workforce (and customer base) both expect a great reader experience too. The wide-reaching tips are invaluable, as the author says, 'from entry level to CEO'!"
